EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Cedre; Cedar-tree; Cedernbaum" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through beautifully illustrated dictionaries. Created by the European School, this print showcases a majestic cedar tree, symbolizing strength and resilience. The intricate details of the engraving highlight the botany and natural history of this magnificent tree species. Its branches reach towards the sky with grace, while its textured bark adds depth to its portrayal. The illustration is part of Armand Le Brun's renowned work, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" which aimed to bridge language barriers between French, English, and German speakers. As we admire this piece from a private collection, we are reminded of how books served as gateways to knowledge in an era before digital resources dominated our lives. This print not only captures the essence of scientific methods used in botanical studies but also reflects on general knowledge-seeking during that time. With Germany being at the heart of Europe's intellectual pursuits during this period, it is no surprise that this enchanting artwork originates from there. However, it has found its way into collections across Europe including England and France. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we have been granted access to appreciate historical treasures like these prints that continue to inspire curiosity about our world's flora and expand our understanding of different cultures through language exploration.
